I'm from Lenoir, North Carolina, where the Broyhill Furniture Industries home was located. They sold out to another company many years ago, and are no longer in business. They did make some fine furniture with different product lines at different levels of quality. Thank you for this informative video in which you carefully explained the processes and materials used to make a beautiful restoration. I have subscribed, and look forward to seeing more of your very fine work.

Great restoration ! It’s so nice to see you using environmentally safe QCS! Can you tell me what the Glazing step does ? Very nice , clear explanation of your products and steps , Thank you !

@MadManRestorations Жыл бұрын

Sure! Glaze gets into the pores of the wood and makes them pop. Sometimes sanding will remove the color from the grain. Glaze will help fill that in. It always gives the pieces an overall color.

Great work! your technique is detailed, meticulous, with excellent results. I didn't know furniture with the design of the Palacio do Planalto in Brasilia, Brazil. The curvilinear and elegant lines of the Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer made history in Brazilian architecture and marked an era in the 50s and 60s. Do you know who made this furniture?

@MadManRestorations Жыл бұрын

The manufacturer is Broyhill. I'm not a huge Brasilia fan so I do not know all the details. But I do think people get confused of the designer and concept origin.

@eduardoquirino3896 Жыл бұрын

@@MadManRestorations The origin of this design comes from the front arches of the Alvorada Palace, the official residence of Brazilian presidents in Brasilia. The architect designed several official buildings from the 50s and 60s, but these arches are unique, not repeated in any of his other projects. I found on Facebook a group of lovers of this line of furniture, passionate about the design reproduced in furniture.

Different tools for different scenarios. I love QCS and value it's use. But when the finish is flaking I find it easier to scrap. It also saves in QCS which I can use one another project.

You said the QCS is great for the curved doors - what is the advantage of scraping the finish off the flat parts instead of using QCS there too?

TBH it all depends how I'm feeling. Sometimes I like to save product by using the scraper especially if the finish is very brittle like it was on this top.

Lane was not expensive furniture. That is why the wood variations.

@MadManRestorations 4 ай бұрын

Yes, most MCM furniture was mass produced. They is why there are cheaper woods with more expensive veneers on the same piece. That is why the color is matched using stain, toner, and glazes.

@Finish-IT- Ай бұрын

Using a scraper is not recommended. I know a lot of people like them, but they are not worth using. Definitely not something to teaching to beginners. You need to upgrade, simply do an acetone wash it would be done in minutes with that dry finish. You wouldn’t run the risk of damaging the piece. Scrapers have limited use in a professional setting. Definitely not for stripping a whole piece of furniture. If you want to maintain a high standard please ditch the scraper.
